Half way there! 45 pound loss, from 243 to 198.

I feel ya. I'm not a veggie person either. Especially leafy greens that are good for me, make me gag! I do not eat salad of any kind. Spinach is the devil. Romaine is close behind. I never found a dressing that was tolerable. (Taco salad w/iceburg lettuce is the ONLY exception.) For me it's the texture. I've been putting…

Hmmm.... I'd wonder why such a large piece of exercise equipment was in a coffee shop...

I got on the scale today, and was 212.6 . Yesterday I was 214.something! It was water weight. So I actually lost a pound from last Thursday's weigh-in. From now on, I only weigh-in once a week. I'll move the scale upstairs so I'm not tempted. I'm too lazy to walk up the stairs in the morning. I want to thank everyone for…

Yeaaaah. MY-Fitness-Pal has already lowered my calories twice. People said I was losing too fast (shut up. I gained it even faster.) Honestly the first 10 pounds or so I wasn't doing anything but not eating the sugary things anymore. Then using the app and logging my food helped immensely! I love the triumphal "If everyday…

Yeah, there's a certain week of the month I don't even get on the scale. I'll gain 3-5 pounds in water weight!

Thanks! I'll consider the cooked vs not cooked weight. Chicken/turkey I usually weigh after I cook it. I bag it up in 3oz servings and freeze it. With hamburger I use the raw weight.

My TDEE-20% is 1,512. Now, is that every day or just the days I work out?
-
What is TDEE-20%? and how do I calculate my BMR? I do count in half my exercise calories, so that pushes it up to 1,600 on the days I exercise. (sorry I wasn't clear on that!)

Yep! We have a good food scale. My husband was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and is learning what a "serving" is. He's very disappointed. I measure everything so I can get an accurate calorie count.

Really? Yay! I have a problem with eating vegetables. Especially leafy greens. They make me gag so I mix them with fruit and puree them with my Nutri-Ninja! Kale, romaine, carrots, cauliflower, etc. are back in my life thanks to the smoothie! I do keep within my calorie goals. I have a sweet tooth and it satisfies it.

Ok, I should probably take my measurements as well. I just don't WANT to. :|
-
I do put everything I eat into my app. Is that what you meant? I'm trying to watch my sugars. Seems I like my fruit a little too much! =)

Thank you! I will not panic. I guess I'm a little sensitive/paranoid. After being so heavy for so long, I never ever want to go back. I'm going to start some weight training this week to bring my poor atrophied muscles back to life.
